The week has reached my day for a trip into Civic to catch up with friends. With that done I urged my nearly empty of fuel car to the fuel station to fill up before heading to a couple of central caches. Two out of two done ok. I spent the afternoon at home catching up on household stuff, before heading to the Jamison event in the evening with Kitty Katch. I have done a few of these movie caches now and it has been fun visiting some of the locations. The multi part of this went smoothly and I found myself at nice corner of Kingston that was empty of people. This gave me the chance to feel around and find this great little cache.Thanks for the cache Toy Hunters49824.1 TNLNVisited: World Traveling Gold GC A#6 & 2016 Bigfoot A#354**Albida**
#21078 - 11:06:27 AM; Needed a few caches today to help with a personal challenge I'm working on. Collected a couple near Majura Park,before heading over to the inner south for a few more, including this one. Gathered the required information and did the calculations before heading to GZ. The geosenses sprang into action and I soon had the cache in hand. All up seven from seven for the mission. All caches were replaced as found once the log was stamped/signed. TFTC Toy Hunters
Had a nice walk with geopartner from home to Kingston Foreshore. Grabbed the info and soon had cache in hand. I will have to look up the film. TFTC Toy Hunters
Ignoring the sage advice of Mr Hunters, I did indeed attempt this multi on a Sunday while my family were in town and wanted to check out the markets here.After taking advantage of the free public transport in this direction and discovering that the event mainly consisted of folks shilling their various trinkets and wares (none of which were especially appealing to me), I retreated to complete this multi.A very simple process of collecting the numbers ensued where I'd yell out what we were looking for and someone else would respond with the digit I desired!Soon enough, gz was calculated, and we wound up in an area that was a bit quieter but still had a few lingering individuals.Some spot-on coordinates guided me to a hiding spot that demanded it be checked out first, and the cache was discreetly retrieved from this anticipated location!Thanks to Toy Hunters for placing this multi!
Nice little multi that was quickly solved.A short walk to GZ where the cache was quickly uncovered TFTC
This is a really interesting series. I have yet to see the film. I love recognising locations. TFTC *Found with [Geooh GO](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mobiltal.geoohGO)*
Today fitzy_1965 and I headed into Canberra to attend Mr Hunters Birthday celebration. To fill in some time beforehand, we did a bit of caching.Still some time before the event, we stopped by here to do the multi. Easy to find the information and a shortish walk to a sneaky GZ.Thanks Toy Hunters
Found with minniek during a mini excursion around Canberra prior to attending Mr Hunters' Quarter Century event.A leisurely morning saw us lounge around home for a while before heading into Canberra early afternoon. We wanted to cherry pick a number of caches before the event, and this one was on our list. Parked pretty close to the posted coordinates, then walked over and gathered the required info. Once GZ was calculated over we went for a nice quick find - loved the container ! Stamped the log, replaced the cache as found, then headed off to the next one.Thanks Toy Hunters !! We are really enjoying this series. I love visiting movie locations, especially ones I know well ! FP.
Some of the information proved to be a challenge to gather in the dark, but once sorted, the container was soon revealed and the log signed. Thanks for the cache Toy Hunters
A fun little multi, found with Scaphoid! It was a cold night & we arrived at WP1 thanks to easy parking without many people around. Firstly got to meet a cute puppy that was walking past with its owner! Our attention then focused on the first question. Once we were standing in the correct spot and had our torches focused on the right area, the answer was quickly obtained. The second answer also presented itself quickly and we soon crunched the numbers. Your multis are my favourite, always within walking distance and the single waypoints that highlight a specific location for good reasoning, with a physical find to boot! The challenges that presented in this scene sound frustrating, but good to hear it still was able to make it into the final cut! Once we arrived at GZ it felt very familiar, I have a feeling there was a cache nearby many years ago, long gone now. Thankfully the hint led us straight to the hide, however it was a very unexpected container! A lot of effort has gone into this series, nicely hidden TFTC
Found with Loci612 on a cold night, thankfully that meant the area was pretty quiet except for a couple of dog walkers. Both sets of information were obtained fairly easily with the first one requiring some decent torch power. Soon enough we were off to GZ where we made a fairly quick find. I always enjoy multi's like this, single waypoints, with a short walk to GZ and something interesting to learn. Thank you Toy Hunters for the multi, I've enjoyed slowly working through this series and I appreciate the effort gone into it!
It was lovely weather today. With ALL7 lend me around for some caches.Enjoyed with Multi, took me little long way and count up to next final.at here GZ, nice spotted with good coords.signed the log with good dry
I remember spying this cache on the map when perusing the nearby options on a day of T5 shenanigans not too long ago! While attempting to find a park I distinctly recall spying a spot and betting that this cache would land there.I was right! Today I showed up to WP1 to confirm my personal bet where B and C were quickly derived but A didnt fall so quickly. Im not sure if its because my glasses need updating, I cant see through a window, or whether the lighting caused some issues, but I could not find or read the required info.Given I had a majority of the required values, and the large amount of arithmetic operations in the description, I reckoned I could just try some educated guessing and I was right! +1!From there I had a promising GZ which lined up with my aforementioned hunch. But disaster struck when I managed to fail access not once, but twice. No idea what I was thinking, but clearly it wasnt great! -1!From my vantage point derived from incorrect access I thought I spied the correct entrance and indeed I had, right next to where I was previously standing. *sigh*With that dilemma sorted I soon found myself at GZ where the sneaky cache presented itself! Seen these elsewhere but never actually found one so that was a cool surprise! Was slightly confused about how the cache was actually magnetic, but then I realised what was going on, cool! Signed the log, returned the cache, and continued on my journey!Thanks for this multi and associated series Toy Hunters!
I was in the area to meet a friend for dinner. I came along ninety minutes early so that I could pick up some geocaches. This was the first of four. You know, Ive been to Kingston Foreshore plenty of times, and always thought that the buildings on this side of the road were derelict. I was so pleased that this geocache brought me over here so that I could see everything!Thanks for the cache, Toy Hunters
With FFL and ALL7 wow what a fun Multi cache this is we all work together zoom to GZ log and placed back where it belong TFTM
Good Multi and FFLL, Groot-1983 and i working out for question then zoom to GZ... Yay.. tks Fav for you.. wink
This was such a lovely and succinct multi. We do look forward to watching this movie at some stage and finding out a bit more. This was the first of the caches in this series that we have found. We look forward to finding the rest! Mrs Domsky had spent the morning at the Dentist and with the anaesthetic now wearing off, a bit of distraction was a good idea and this seemed like a gentle walk that would be just right and a good remedy and tonic.After collecting the numbers at the fitters workshop ( a place we have both played many concerts over the years ), but never read those particular signs, we took a short walk to GZ. A quick find and lovely to be out in the sunshine today. Thanks Toy Hunters Domsky
I often wander past here to get a well earned coffee, after collecting the info and working out the coordinates it was an easy find . Thanks Toy Hunters
Plenty of parking on an early Friday evening, a good time to be passing by. Details gathered under torch light and coordinates quickly calculated. Took a tip and a second look to find the sneaky bugger, happy to have this one under my belt. TNLNSL TFTC
Nice quiet day to collect the info and then a short stroll to the cache. Interesting series - I'm enjoying the story. Tftc
Found at 1815. I couldnt see the load sign in the dark, but was able to deduce the answer once I had B & C. A very clever hide. TFTC.
A nice quick and easy multi. Glad we came by after the markets though. Not too many muggles around. Tftc!!!
Out with Tankengine, youban and dty73 after the lunch time event. We arrived at just the right time with the markets ended and the barrier being removed for our easy parking. The activies of yesterday have caught up with me, and im struggling today, so I was very pleased about a close park! Information easily collected and calculated. A short walk and good coordinates for an easy find. Thanks for the cache!
Quick collection and processing of the data for a good set of coordinates.Love this fun interesting series, and wonderful to read of the CO's involvement. A favourite point on the Orroral Valley cache (11 The Little Spinster: Basket and Bicycle, GCAMCRA) for the series.TFTC Toy Hunters
A bit of data collection, simple calculations and the hint got us to GZ. TFTC
Slowly working through the most excellent 'The Little Spinster' series. Another nicely set out multi here, with the data quickly gathered and then a little journey off to GZ where the cache was quickly located and in good condition. Thanks, Toy Hunters!
Out with Tankengine and Dty73 and Aqulius1 Just left the COs event and thought we would try our luck at a few of his caches. Nabbed this one. Kutgw
Chooo ooo [Found] with youban and dty73 and Aquilus1 - nice area here!Thanks Toy Hunters!
Out for a morning walk and this was my closest to collect calendar day. Did the math and made my way to GZ, but needed the clue to make me look further out as GPS had me 10m from the hide.TFTC and the research.
Arrived early with no one around .Moved to the start point and soon found the answers for the questions in the listing .Some calculations done and off to the new location.Found the sneaky hide and signed the FTF position and progressed to the Fyshwick cache next .Many thanks to Toyhunters for the series.
Second to find (STF) is apparently a thing in EuropeBut not here We got this as part of our morning exerciseThanks TH for the fun Tricky hide I have to say. I didnt know you had that level of evil in you. Me like it
Glorious little spot this! Never knew it was here.TFF beat us to the first to find, but thats okay, we still thought wed come along and grab it after reeling in the Fyshwick chapter of this new series earlier this morning.So glad this series has finally been published and the big secret of its theme is out of the bag Tricky hide at ground zero! Baristayan - no, its not gonna be thereMe - found itAnother spinster was almost creatednah just kidding. Thanks Toy Hunters!
#22128 @1740I stopped by here on my way to a dinner with friends. Managed to collect the required info despite the low light. Cache soon found. TFTC.
